ADVERTORIAL TECHNOLOGY IN ACTION
BULKEX – the must-visit bulk handling event of 2017 W
ith a dozen speakers giving presentations on topical and technical topics, plus a supporting exhibition and
awards dinner, BULKEX17 is an event not to be missed. BREXIT, biomass, digitalisation and new technology are just some of the subjects that will be discussed during the two-day conference, organised by the MHEA, on 18 and 19 October. Bulk Handling Today and Tomorrow is living up to its
promise with seminars from key speakers from prominent organisations including the Institute for Government, UKTI, Port of Tyne and Siemens. The high-quality and diverse programme of
presentations is proving a draw for professionals from within the bulk handling industry and across vertical sectors such as mining, quarrying, energy, ports and transport.
